Rumour here has it that the services (i.e. the expert bureaucrats) are in a hurry to complete a proposal, while the cabinet (i.e. the political division) isn't. The thing is that if they don't complete this within their term (keeping EP elections in May and new Commission before the end of the year), no one can knows what the new cabinet will do. They could even decide to not go ahead with a proposal at all and kill the process. All of this is fortune-telling for now, but important to keep in mind.
Should it impact our answers at all? i.e., should we be making them more aggressively/clearly in favor of acting now? or should we just go forward as previously planned?
